Light Rail Service: Vehicular and Pedestrian Safety

TRB’s Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Research Results Digest 34: Light Rail Service: Vehicular and Pedestrian Safety contains information to facilitate the safe, orderly, and integrated movement of all traffic, including light rail vehicles (LRVs), throughout the public highway system, but especially at light rail transit (LRT) crossings. This report is intended to assist those involved in the planning, design, operation, and maintenance of LRT systems by providing a consistent set of guidelines and standards for LRT operations through higher speed LRT crossings.
